Are there there any little squash visible between the vine and the blossom? If there is you need to hand pollinate that blossom with a male? blossom with a artist paint brush or just cut a fruitless blossom off and rub it lightly into the blossom with the fruit...

Yes, on some there are. I figured that was the result of pollination before moving the plant indoors. But hmmm...

Heh. Didn’t even know there were male/female squash blossoms. Time to go to squash school evidently ;-}

Thanks!
